This holiday season, Shore Fire took part in New York Cares‘ Winter Wishes program. The program gives underprivileged children, teens and seniors all over New York City a chance to write letters requesting holiday gifts, and gives volunteers the chance to fulfill those gift wishes! For many of the letter writers, it’s the only gift they’ll receive this holiday season, and Shore Fire staffers answered the call, fulfilling wishes for Basketballs, Beyblades (by far, the hottest toy request) and everything in between!
Over the weekend, Chris Thieke and I took a trip to Long Island City to drop off the gifts….
The wrapped gifts, ready to go!

Thanks SO MUCH to our staff members who participated, and helped make the holidays brighter for 21 kids, teens and seniors this year!!!
And for those in the NYC area, we highly recommend Winter Wishes if you’re interested in giving back next year.
